The living embodiment of The Beatles, a musical juggernaut without parallel,
Paul McCartney is undoubtedly the senior figure in pop music today. In this
authoritative biography, journalist and acclaimed author Howard Sounes
leaves no stone unturned in building the most accurate and extensive profile
yet of music's greatest living legend. He is one of the biggest stars that
has ever existed, the only key member left from the unquestioned 'biggest
band of all time'. But despite the almost unprecedented press coverage he
has received throughout his lifetime, the private personality of Paul
McCartney remains a source of intrigue and relative mystery to the public.
Spanning the entirety of McCartney's life from early childhood right up to
the present day, Fab delves deep into the life of this remarkable and often
surprising man, revealing the often dark reality behind his consistently
positive, relaxed public image. For the first time, Sounes will examine in
detail the lifestyle of one of the richest men on the planet, the truth
behind his much publicized divorce from Heather Mills, as well as his
tempestuous relationship with the other Beatles, with startling revelations.
Drawing on countless interviews, legal records and public documents, Howard
Sounes' meticulous approach and brilliant powers of research reveal the real
Paul McCartney, like you've never known him before.
